  • Publication number: 20250392097
    Abstract: A light-emitting device includes first and second semiconductor laser elements, a package, and first and second reflection regions. The first and second reflection regions are configured to respectively reflect first and second lights emitted from the first and second semiconductor laser elements. A distance from a first light-emitting point to a first irradiation spot on the first reflection region irradiated with light propagating along an optical axis of the first light is shorter than a distance from the second light-emitting point to a second irradiation spot on the second reflection region irradiated with light propagating along an optical axis of the second light. The first light has an angle of divergence in a fast-axis direction greater than an angle of divergence in the fast-axis direction which the second light has.
